Posner-Scholssman Syndrom is characterized by intermittent acute episodes of glaucoma with mild anterior uveitis. Usually, the crisis is unilateral, recurrent and typified by discreet dilation of the pupils as opposed to constricted pupils, commonly seen in iritis. Herein this article, we report three cases of male patients with Posner-Schlossman syndrome, two of them showing a significant degree of first degree parenthood. Based upon typical signs and symptoms, and careful eye examination, thereby discussed and analyzed, it is possible to diagnose […]

Eletroretinographic findings show that the transient decreased vision seen in patients with the multiple evanescent white dot syndrome (MEWDS) is related to metabolic disturbances at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptor complex. In this paper, we present a patient with a typical picture of MEWDS associated to macular edema, which could also be a factor to reduce vision in this disorder. Case report of a 53-year-old woman complaining about unilateral decreased vision of 7 days’ duration was […]

Report of a study of a family with a remarkable combination of endothelial corneal dystrophy, and anterior chamber dysgenesis classified as Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly. A 56 year-old female had blurred vision complaints. A slit lamp evaluation showed a bilateral posterior embryotoxon and guttata with corneal edema, Descemet membrane’s folds, characterizing Fuchs endothelial dystrophy. A 27 year-old daughter was asymptomatic. The biomicroscopic exam disclosed a bilateral nasal and temporal posterior embryotoxon and a central guttata. Gonioscopy showed iridocorneal strands with a prominent […]

Relato dos resultados do estudo de uma família com distrofia corneana endotelial associada a uma disgenesia do segmento anterior, a anomalia de Axenfeld-Rieger. Paciente de 56 anos, feminina, queixava-se de visão borrada. O exame na lâmpada de fenda evidenciou embriotoxo posterior bilateral e guttata no centro da córnea, edema estromal e dobras na membrana de Descemet, caracterizando distrofia endothelial de Fuchs. A filha de 27 anos estava assintomática. A biomicroscopia revelou embriotoxo posterior nasal e temporal bilateral e guttata central. […]
